FAQs
Should I choose 160, 180 or 200 ASTA?
It depends on how red the finished product must be and how much paprika the recipe allows. Higher ASTA gives more color per kilogram. A side-by-side test with samples is the quickest way to decide. See also our 160 ASTA and 200 ASTA paprika powder.
How is the 180 ASTA value checked?
By the ASTA 20.1 spectrophotometric method. The result for your lot can be shown on the batch COA.
Can I get a free sample of 180 ASTA paprika?
Yes. The 200 g evaluation sample is free; the buyer pays the freight.
Do you offer private-label packing?
Yes. OEM and private-label packing can be arranged. Send your pack size and artwork.
